  2. 21. Innate immunity in diabetes mellitus. Complement components C4BP and C3 promote survival of β cells under metabolic challenges

    Author : Klaudia Kulak; Malmö Proteinkemi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Complement System; Inflammasome; Islet Amyloid Polypeptide; Complement C3; C4b-binding protein C4BP ; Interleukin 1β; Autophagy-Related Protein 16 like 1; Diabetes mellitus; type 2;

    Abstract : The Complement system is a main effector mechanism of the innate immune system, acting to enhance clearance of pathogens, but also aids removal of biological debris from the body, including immunocomplexes, apoptotic/necrotic cells and protein aggregates. Complement regulators serve to prevent excessive inflammation and their interaction with the same materials targeted by the complement system results in ‘silent’ cleaning of wastes. READ MORE

  4. 22. Effects of reactive oxygen species on the cellular vacuolar apparatus

    Author : Johann Zdolsek; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Reactive and potentially harmful oxygen species occur, and are continuously formed, in all cells of a living organism. Increased production of these metabolites are seen in a number of pathological states, for instance in inflammatory foci or during reoxygenation of ischemic tissue. READ MORE

  5. 23. The role of N-cadherin and S1P/S1P1 in pancreas development

    Author : Jenny Johansson; Stamcellscentrum (SCC); []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Organogenesis of epithelial organs requires interaction between epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. During pancreas development, mesenchyme-derived structures induce specification, growth and differentiation of pancreatic epithelial cells. READ MORE

  6. 24. Molecular Imaging of Diabetic Kidney Tissue and Binding Studies of Proinsulin C-peptide

    Author : Lina Lindfors; Jan Kihlberg; Ingela Lanekoff; Fredrik Almqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Diabetic kidney disease; Proinsulin C-peptide; GPR146; Mass spectrometry imaging; nano-DESI; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Diabetic kidney disease is a serious complication of diabetes with a complex and incompletely understood pathology. In this work, the molecular changes in diabetic rat kidneys at a very early disease stage were studied using nanospray desorption electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry imaging. READ MORE

  7. 25. Interactions between platelets and complement with implications for the regulation at surfaces

    Author : Per H. Nilsson; Kristina Nilsson Ekdahl; John Lambris; Ian Nicholls; Berhane Ghebrehiwet; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; complement system activation; regulation ; platelets activation; regulation ; biomaterials; biocompatibility; chondroitin sulfate-A; apyrase; C1q; C3; factor H; C4BP; ADP; Biomedical Sciences; Biomedicinsk vetenskap;

    Abstract : Disturbances of host integrity have the potential to evoke activation of innate immunologic and hemostatic protection mechanisms in blood. Irrespective of whether the activating stimulus is typically immunogenic or thrombotic, it will generally affect both the complement system and platelets to a certain degree. READ MORE
